I've seen quite a few people feeling tangled up in this volatile market recently. A question that’s asked quite frequently is—why choose to add positions at high levels? I think it’s worth explaining this properly.
The logic isn’t that complicated: I always follow the trend direction, rather than focusing on specific price points. You’ll find that once a true trend is established, the actual level itself loses significance. During a strong upward move, any position within that range is essentially a bottom; during a strong downward move, everything within the range is a top. No exceptions.
More importantly, the speed at which a trend develops often exceeds expectations. If you miss the chance to get in early and keep waiting for a "lower entry point," it’s basically a lost cause—the market simply won’t wait for you. At this point, some start thinking about shorting at high levels to "pick up bargains." But honestly, that kind of thinking is not far from losing everything.
So stop worrying about what constitutes a high point or a low point. Once the true direction is confirmed, those who try to be clever and chase perfect entry points will ultimately get wiped out in this wave of market movement. This is an experience I’ve truly gained through hard knocks.

Adding positions at high levels looks scary, but watching the show from home at low levels is even more亏.
---
People who understand this logic have already jumped on board, and those still waiting for the perfect point... I won't say more.
---
My experience from crawling and fighting through the market is that the market doesn't wait for anyone. Missed one opportunity, and the next one might be two months later.
---
The most feared are those brothers still holding short positions at high levels; they're really not far from liquidation.

Anyway, I believe in the trend, not the point. After being caught so many times, I’ve come to understand.

Just by reading this article, you can tell the author has really played the game, not just theoretical talk.

I just want to ask, where are those people waiting for even lower points now?
Adding positions at high levels is actually a gamble on the direction, not on the point level. Once you understand the reasoning, you can let it go.
I've learned my lesson this time. If the trend is right, just get in; don't fight the market.
It's really a mindset issue. I was too greedy, wanting the perfect entry point, and in the end, I didn't catch anything.
It's a bit painful to admit, but many people fall into this trap, waiting for that elusive bottom.
Those waiting for the bottom will end up missing out on gains, and this time won't be an exception.
Adding positions at high levels? It's really just betting that the trend isn't over yet, much more reliable than blindly guessing the bottom.
The perfect entry point is a false proposition; the market simply won't move according to your expectations.
Honestly, those waiting to buy the dip all end up becoming bagholders.
The mentality of short sellers is the most twisted; they're really not far from liquidation.
Once the trend starts, any entry point doesn't matter; what's important is whether the direction is correct.
